the island

the night is doing that thing again

we are stranded on an island estranged

feeding off bits and pieces of sea salt to train for the future of abundance

how to explain the cause & go on?

finding salvation in songs

looking for messages in dawns

the binoculars do not work

we have to use fire signals

drugs do not work

we have to get high on each other

and pray it works out by the time we get old

figure each other out and maybe not unload

while my thoughts find a canvas and explode

but then we depart

what is the point of exploring hearts?

memories? those are for the retired

one with the experience: lost conscience

that is the lie sold

and i am off to buy it.
